TLDR
The synergistic effect of hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs) and vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) in the successful outgrowth of metastasis is focused on, integrating therefore many of the emerging models and theories in the field.

The Role of Tumor Microenvironment Cells in Colorectal Cancer (CRC) Cachexia.

TL;DR: A recent review as discussed by the authors summarizes the current knowledge on the role of TME cellular components in CRC-associated cachexia, as well as discusses the potential role of selected mediators secreted by colorectal cancer cells in cooperation with tumor-associated immune and non-immune cells of tumor microenvironment in inducing or potentiating cancer cachexia.

Ziv-aflibercept in metastatic colorectal cancer.

TL;DR: The role of tumor angiogenesis as the rationale for antiangiogenic therapy, the clinical data associated with ziv-aflibercept, and its current role as a treatment option compared to other antiangIogenic agents, such as bevacizumab and regorafenib are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TIAM1 promotes chemoresistance and tumor invasiveness in colorectal cancer.

TL;DR: The inhibition of TIAM1 enhanced sensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs and reduced tumor invasiveness in a series of experiments in vitro and results suggest thatTIAM1 regulates chemosensitivity in tumors and stroma and thus may be an attractive therapeutic target.

Modulation of tumor microenvironment by metal-organic-framework-derived nanoenzyme for enhancing nucleus-targeted photodynamic therapy

TL;DR: A novel nanoenzyme that derived from metal-organic framework (MOF) with intrinsic catalase-like activities to decompose H 2 O 2 to O 2 and simultaneous glutathione consumption for enhancing PDT efficacy is fabricated and inhibited the tumor growth in the mouse model with high efficacy without any biotoxicity.

Global cancer statistics

TL;DR: A substantial proportion of the worldwide burden of cancer could be prevented through the application of existing cancer control knowledge and by implementing programs for tobacco control, vaccination, and early detection and treatment, as well as public health campaigns promoting physical activity and a healthier dietary intake.
Journal ArticleDOI

A genetic model for colorectal tumorigenesis

TL;DR: A model for the genetic basis of colorectal neoplasia that includes the following salient features is presented, which may be applicable to other common epithelial neoplasms, in which tumors of varying stage are more difficult to study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor Angiogenesis: Therapeutic Implications

TL;DR: This new capillary growth is even more vigorous and continuous than a similar outgrowth of capillary sprouts observed in 2016 and is likely to be accompanied by neovascularization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunity, Inflammation, and Cancer

TL;DR: The principal mechanisms that govern the effects of inflammation and immunity on tumor development are outlined and attractive new targets for cancer therapy and prevention are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transitions in Development and Disease

TL;DR: The mesenchymal state is associated with the capacity of cells to migrate to distant organs and maintain stemness, allowing their subsequent differentiation into multiple cell types during development and the initiation of metastasis.
